Steps
- Choose one supported audio file from this device.
- Choose an MP3 bitrate available at the output sample rate.
- Start processing and keep this tab open while the local engine runs.
- Play the validated result, then download the MP3.
Audio & video / Local FFmpeg tool
Audio to MP3 Converter
Convert common audio files to widely compatible MP3 with a chosen bitrate, entirely in your browser.
Files stay in your browser
The first run loads an approximately 31 MB FFmpeg WebAssembly core from this site. It does not use a CDN or upload your files.
Choose a file and the sample rate, channels and codec detected on this device appear here.
Files are limited to 200 MB total and 20 minutes; mobile devices use an 80 MB limit. Reverse, GIF and boomerang tools have lower duration caps.
At most 60 download files are generated.
Choose files, set the controls, then start.

Practical guide
Convert audio to MP3 without uploading the file
Use this converter when a player, editor or publishing workflow specifically needs MP3. The bundled LAME encoder offers only bitrates that the output sample rate can carry, then validates the local MP3 before download.
Settings and output
- 96 kbps
- Compact output for speech and drafts where size matters most.
- 128 kbps
- A moderate general-purpose choice for casual listening.
- 192 kbps
- A balanced default for music and mixed content.
- Higher bitrates, when available
- Offered only when the output sample rate supports them; they create larger files.
Method, example & boundaries
Audio to MP3 Converter: from input to a reviewable result
Convert a supported audio file to MP3 with an explicit bitrate while the file remains inside the browser. The page loads the self-hosted FFmpeg WebAssembly core only when processing begins, verifies the produced audio, and exposes the result as a local download.
Worked example: WAV voice recording to MP3
- Example input
- A 48 kHz stereo WAV recording; output bitrate 128 kbps.
- Example output
A validated .mp3 download encoded with the bundled LAME encoder; stereo is preserved for a two-channel source.
How to interpret it
For spoken audio, 128 kbps is a practical compatibility-oriented starting point. Increase the bitrate only after comparing the audible result and file-size cost for the real recording.
Local encoding and output validation
The selected file is decoded and re-encoded by single-thread FFmpeg.wasm with LAME inside a worker. After encoding, the page probes the output before reporting success. Temporary object URLs and worker memory are released on cancellation, error, or page close.
Quality, size, and device limits
- Lossy MP3 encoding cannot restore detail missing from the source.
- Files are limited to 200 MB and 20 minutes; mobile uses an 80 MB cap.
- First use downloads an approximately 31 MB self-hosted processing core.

How it works
Audio to MP3 Converter
MP3 uses the bundled LAME encoder. Higher bitrates preserve more detail but create larger files.
How does this tool process my file?
MP3 uses the bundled LAME encoder. Higher bitrates preserve more detail but create larger files. Processing uses single-thread FFmpeg.wasm. The page does not upload, store or inspect file content outside this device. Cancel, error and page close terminate the worker and revoke temporary object URLs.
What limits apply to the output?
Output is stereo MP3 when the source has two channels; no file is uploaded. Files are limited to 200 MB total and 20 minutes; mobile devices use an 80 MB limit. Reverse, GIF and boomerang tools have lower duration caps.
